At the first halving on November 28, 2012, BTC/USD traded around $12. By the second, on July 9, 2016, it was $657. The third halving due in mid-2020 or in 644 days will see the block reward reduce from 12.5 BTC to 6.25 BTC, while Whats On Crypto suggests ongoing trends could see prices hit a giant $10 million by 2023-quoted by wilma woo.
These predictions are giving us hope about the future of bitcoin but we all know that bitcoin is know for its volatile and unstable characteristics. Do you think that the expert's predictions are possible or do you think that this are just a mere simple prediction.
This seems a bit extreme to me. I'd be a bit more conservative in my estimations, but I'd certainly say that it will increase before the halving, not so much after. The speculative nature of bitcoin means everyone will be buying in anticipation of a halving, and that will drive the price higher than it should be. Then, either directly before or immediately after the event, a lot of people will cash out.
I'd be aiming in the 30k region more realistically based on technical analysis and recent price action. Assuming it doesn't get hit with any more bad news.
